The physical result of a combination of alleles is known as the phenotype, which refers to the physical characteristics or traits of an organism. Different combinations of alleles can lead to variations in the phenotype, such as eye color, height, or hair texture.
This is known as incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous individual exhibits a phenotype that is intermediate between the two homozygous parents. An example is when a red flower and a white flower cross to produce pink flowers.
Inactive alleles are versions of a gene that do not produce a functional protein or have reduced activity due to mutations. These alleles may not contribute to the individual's phenotype or may have a diminished effect compared to active alleles. Inactive alleles can result in genetic disorders or variations in traits.
Incomplete dominance refers to a genetic scenario where neither allele is completely dominant over the other, resulting in a blending of the traits of the two alleles. This leads to an intermediate phenotype in individuals that inherit one copy of each allele.
Yes which ever of the two alleles is dominant, then the phenotype will take the one of the dominant. they can be codominant, so in that case, you might be able to produce 4 phenotypes. it depends if the two alleles create 4
When a heterozygous genotype (two different alleles) results in an intermediate phenotype, this is either codominance or incomplete dominance. If it is codominance, then both alleles are expressed together in the phenotype. If it is incomplete dominance, the two alleles produce a blended phenotype rather than both alleles being expressed together.

Codominance is when an organism has two different dominant alleles, so both of them are expressed.When an organism has two identical dominant alleles, it is homozygous.
In intermediate inheritance, two different alleles at a single gene locus interact to produce a phenotype that is a blend of the two alleles. This results in a phenotype that falls between the dominant and recessive traits, rather than showing a clear dominant-recessive relationship. Both alleles contribute to the final phenotype in a co-dominant or blending manner.
Incomplete dominance occurs when the dominant and recessive alleles both contribute to the phenotype, resulting in an intermediate phenotype. In the case of Appaloosa horses, the spotted coat color is not a blended color but rather a distinct phenotype that is a result of both alleles influencing the expression of the trait. This is because each allele has a unique effect on the phenotype, leading to a different outcome than if the alleles were simply blended together.

The physical result of a combination of alleles is known as the phenotype, which refers to the physical characteristics or traits of an organism. Different combinations of alleles can lead to variations in the phenotype, such as eye color, height, or hair texture.
When the members of a gene pair are identical, the organism is described as homozygous for that trait. This means both alleles, one inherited from each parent, are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive. Homozygosity can influence the expression of traits, as both alleles will produce the same phenotype. In contrast, if the alleles are different, the organism is heterozygous.
A heterozygous woman with two genes (each having two alleles) can produce four different types of gametes due to the random assortment of alleles during meiosis.
This is known as incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous individual exhibits a phenotype that is intermediate between the two homozygous parents. An example is when a red flower and a white flower cross to produce pink flowers.
